Default raced a boxster

i was going down this road called palomar airport road near my house at about 8 o clock at night and there is always people who want to race. A boxster pulls up next to me and started inching up. He had his girlfriend in the car and i had my friend in my car. He tried to race me several times from different speeds and every time i was jacking him pretty bad, it was a manual convertible im not really sure of the year. I looked them up and i think they are supposed to run a mid 14 or so. Even when i was burning out i was still pulling on him. I think if we would have raced quarter mile i would have taken him by like 5 cars or more, it was a good kill and it definitely made my night lol.

Nice kill. Nowadays Porsches are becoming easier to beat with all these new ones they're making with slow v6's and what not.

Boxters are not fast. I raced one in my '03 GT drop auto from a stop and beat it by about a car. I had flowmaster mufflers welded in and a 300 lb passenger.

I raced a Boxster S awhile back. We ran from a 70 punch and I wasn't impressed. The guy was really cool and gave me a thumbs up, which surprised me.

I was with my future father in law in his 03' dodge ram hemi shortbed w/ superchip cold air and exhaust. He pulled up on this white porsche with exhaust i want to say it was the cerara or something and there was a spoiled *** teenager driver in it that was coaxing father in law on so my father in law stabbed and left that porsche swimming with the fishes. I was totaly shocked and couldnt believe it.

there is no way you took a 911 with a dodge ram, iv driven both, and my 6 would take a ram but it was a extended cab. 911s run 12s or 13s, the rams run 16s, so with a chip and exhaust its probably high 15s at the best
